The Minneapolis Institute of Arts 201 East Twenty-Fourth Street-- Bridgeport 4256 Minneapolis 4, Minnesota Russel A. Plimpton, Director April 24, 1952 Dear Germain; I was so sorry not to see you during my two brief days in New York. As I wrote you, we arrived on Saturday and spent the day checking on furnishings for our new house, rushing to your gallery at the end of the afternoon. Just as I suspected when I passed your man on 57th Street, you had closed by the time we got to number 5. We then planned to see you Monday morning, but had to fly at 6 am for Grand Rapids because we were unable to get seats on a later plan, all of which would have allowed us to see you. At any rate, I had very little to report. I do hope Mr. Plimpton will have a chance to see the Rodin at the end of this of the beginning of next week. Sincerely, Davis Richard S. Davis Senior curator Mr. Germain Seligman Jacques Seligmann & Co.,Inc. 5 East 57th Street New York 22, New York RSD: mjk
